94XPOSED TUESDAY NOVEMBER 29TH
1993 – Metallica released the “Binge & Purge” box set. The set included Recordings from live shows done all around the world on Metallica's 1991 Black Album tour, including the Montreal show where James Hetfield was severely burned by a botched Pyro set. I have the set on VHS and still pull it out every once in a while!
METALLICA - ENTER SANDMAN The Cult report that they are in the studio, with producer Bob Rock, putting the finishing touches on material for their new album. The band’s ninth release is tentatively due in early 2012 via Cooking Vinyl Records. Interesting to hear The Cult are working with Rock again, who produced the band’s 1989 effort, “Sonic Temple,” and their 1994 self-titled release. Something has obviously changed in the band’s plan since spring, when they announced that they were in the studio with producer Chris Goss (Queens Of The Stone Age, Masters Of Reality) at the controls, with an early fall release expected. Must be the new deal with Cooking Vinyl Records. ------------------------BREAK------------------------ Evanescence are happily back promoting a new record and enjoying playing live, but guitarist Terry Balsamo has reason to cherish it even more. Back in 2005, Balsamo suffered a stroke that left him paralyzed for a period on the left side of his body, but after extensive physical therapy he’s back playing with the band at mostly full capacity. Terry told Ultimate Guitar, “I’ve always had a weird thing in my neck [headbanging], but I never thought it would have given me a stroke. [The doctors] actually saw the clot in my artery in my neck.” Balsamo says he still has some paralysis in his left arm and hand, but he’s at a point where he can get by on tour. He adds, “Basically this tour is like therapy right now for me. I’m hoping it will get better.”
